Answer 1

Answer: 7000 calories /minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

420 kilocalories / hour

To convert  kilocalories / hour to calories / minutes

kilo means 1000 and 60 minutes is equivalent to 1 hour

therefore

= (420*1000 calories) / 60minutes

= (420000 / 60) calories/minutes

= 7000 calories /minutes
